The simple fact of the matter is that businesses in this country require capital to get moving in the right direction.

These kinds of situations tend to run more smoothly when an experienced mergers and acquisition firm is involved in the scenario. For years now, Madison Street Capital has been providing these types of important services and guidance for their clients.
Article Outlines Recognition Bestowed Upon Madison Street Capital COO
A recent article on the Chicago Tribune website detailed how Madison Street Capital's Chief Operation Officer was recently recognized for its superior performance in the industry. The COO of this firm is Anthony Marsala. He was recently recognized by the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts as part of the organization's 2015 40 Under Forty Recognition Program. This recognition was given is quite an honor for Mr. Marsala, as there were only a handful of people chosen from a pool of more than 125 accomplished business people.
According to the Chicago Tribune article, Marsala, in addition to being the COO of Madison Street Capital, also happens to be one of the co-founders of the firm. His leadership has helped the company to enjoy success in the United States, Africa, Asia and Europe. He is in charge of the team of analysts that performs all of the business valuation for some of the company's most important clients.
Making Business Growth and Mergers More Manageable
As businesses, brands and technology break out from the pack and manage to become profitable, the chances for more mergers and acquisitions tend to increase. It is important to business owners, employees and the economy for these types of deals to be successful. With a leading firm, like Madison Street Capital working behind the scenes to make these types of deals successful, this firm's current and future clients can be confident that they are getting the very best guidance and assistance currently available.

An SEC Whistleblower Attorney People Can Count On
At certain times in life, people may face the need for legal counsel of some kind. This is quite common in many areas of life. It can even be true for a workplace related issue. An employee may need to speak out about a potential problems they have seen while working in a given field. They might note that funds were misused or data was falsified in some way. In doing so, they will need to let others know that this is a problem for them. However, it can be highly dangerous to point out a problem with a given work space. The person doing the speaking out may anger their employers and anger those they work with.
Workplace Protections
Workplace protections today are fully designed to offer help in the event that the employee notices a problem of some kind. Such protections are in place so that those who speak out do not suffer from their choice to let the world know that something is amiss in their company. An employee may be vaguely aware of this protection. But they may not know the exact law that applies in their specific circumstances. In that case, it can be very helpful to consult with legal counsel where the legal counsel can offer they help with their situation at work. The right legal counsel can be just the ticket to help them protect their personal interests.
An SEC Whistleblower Firm
This is why those at the law firm of Labaton Sucharow have been so happy to start an entirely new program designed just for people who need help when they are speaking out. Firm members have seen new regulations that have been enacted and have come to realize that they can be of help for those who need this kind of help. They have rushed to fill what they feel is a true need for help for whistleblowers.
Important Help
Those at Labaton Sucharow can offer skilled help that is vital for anyone who may be confronting a potentially serious problem at work. They have specifically studied the law that applies to such cases in great deal in order to provide true help with any legal issues that may arise in the aftermath of the decision to speak out. The lawyers here will do everything possible to provide expert legal advice during the entire process and often difficult process of whistleblowing.
Securus Technologies: Standing up for what is Right
The desire to stay connected to the ones you love is a need that grows ever stronger each day a person is incarcerated. Finding their world now confined to brick and mortar walls has a way of demoralizing and stigmatism an interned individual, causing a real hurdle for rehabilitation. Inmates are just like any other person; they make mistakes that have long-lasting consequences, and just like everybody else they deserve to be given a second chance to start again. The interned deserve the right to dig themselves out of the hole they find themselves in, and the little things like being able to communicate to the outside world can make all the difference.
Companies like Securus Technologies- headquartered in Dallas, Texas– pride themselves in having the privilege to provide telecommunications services like telephony and video conference capabilities to the correctional institutions they work for across the nation. These amenities allow inmates to not only catch up with friends and family who they might not otherwise get to see or hear from due to travel difficulties or expenses, but palaver frequently with their legal representatives on matters pertaining to their case or parole; things that are quite time-sensitive and must be managed accordingly.
Securus Technologies is a company who holds itself to a high level of conduct like no one else. When there is any wrongdoing in the industry, Securus Tecnologies will see to it that the facts come to light in glaring fashion. Global Tel*Link (GTL) is a company that does not share the same values as Securus Tecnologies, and has in fact committed many egregious acts. GTL has overcharged their customers by billing them for long PDDs and Dead Air, charged ridiculously high call rates than those permitted by the Public Service Commission, and even falsifying charges on certain calls made after they had ended.
It is the hope of Securus Tecnologies that as these facts are presented legal action takes place and the government overseers make sure that these types of fraudulent acts are not committed again.
Kyle Bass Predicts Light Collapse
Economies are tenuous today, and part of the reason for that is borrowing without means of remuneration. In America, the sub-prime lending crisis hit because loans were made to individuals who had no way of paying them back. This defrayed the "other shoe dropping", as it were; but it didn't prevent that sneaker from falling down. When it finally did, America underwent The Great Recession of 2008. Kyle Bass, Argentinian hedge fund manager (though based in Texas), has predicted China's lending practices will result in a similar collapse that will spell economic recession in America by the end of 2016. He doesn't think it will be a recession quite as big as the one experienced in 2008, but he does believe it will be significant. That said, Bass also endorses Hillary Clinton for president on grounds that she's the "most sane" player of the bunch. So can his word as an economist really be trusted?
Consider Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. De Kirchner is a socialist, and has been the president of Argentina for several years. She has defaulted the country twice in the span of just thirteen years, and Bass is always sure to support her in anything she does; almost as though he is her stooge. When one considers that Bass also supports Clinton, who is a globalist, the picture begins to become clear. The reason Bass targets big-ticket economic powers, working to profit from their losses, is because without their collapse a worldwide government with a single economy can't be achieved. The socialist push is this direction, and Bass is working with all his might to see that push come through to fruition.
Another target of Bass are big-ticket pharmaceuticals. Bass uses his pseudo-humanitarian group CAD to undercut prices such companies can sell their pharmaceuticals for. This in turn drops the stock value of the companies in question, and Bass short-sells whatever holdings he had with them, making millions. To abbreviate: Bass legally manipulates the stock market for his own purposes. If he'll exploit pharmaceutical companies such that future advancements are curtailed by a lack of progressive research and development funding from lowered stock-value, in essence exploiting them for personal gain, why wouldn't he do the same regarding China?

Andy Wirth Talks To KCRW Radio
I heard Andy Wirth on KCRW Radio doing an interview with Press Play with Madeleine Brand, and it was a very interesting interview about how he wants to make sure that incorporation in the Olympic Valley does not cause problems for the community.
He wants to make sure that the whole community is cared for a lot better, but he has no idea how that will work without some help from the rest of the people in the area.
He explained how he can make a change to the way the discourse is happening, and he talked about the weather in the area over the past couple years. Read more: Andy Wirth – Squaw Valley CEO and Philanthropist
The drought that has been going on in California this whole time is something that people do not have a solid answer for, but it is something that they need to help with.
The drought has made it hard for the people of the area to have snow falling, and the ski lodges that Andy Wirth owns are all served by the snow that manages to fall in the area. The snow has been coming back, but the drought has still become a problem for the people in the area.
Everyone who wants to pitch in like Andy Wirth can take his advice when he talks about the drought. He wants to make sure that all the people in the Olympic Valley are going to have a say in how they manage their community, and he is sure that it will be much easier for the community to recover. Learn more about Andy Wirth: https://www.crowdrise.com/wwsupport
They might need to incorporate, but they also need to get involved in green initiatives that are happening in the state. Making the state green is a very good step for everyone, and Andy Wirth wants to have the community come together to agree on what they should do.
Everyone who follows the lead of Andy Wirth will be able to help with the drought, and they can change their future while getting more snow to fall.
The Ever Creative, Innovative Doe Deere of Lime Crime
A strong woman with a passion is a powerful thing, and in Doe Deere's case, this passion became the starting point for her unique and wildly successful make up line. Creator and founder of the Lime Crime cosmetics brand, Deere embraced her colorful personality and decided to offer like-minded people the opportunity to do the same.
Deere's career as a successful business owner originated in 2004 when she opened an online shop dedicated to her fashion interests. Since her look involved vivid colors that were decidedly difficult to come by at the time, Deere worked to develop her own cosmetics to complement her style. A few years after, her beauty products had become so successful that she was able to launch her very own make up line, which she dubbed Lime Crime as a nod to her former strictly digital shop.
When asked how she perceived the successfulness of her business, Deere states that she understands true success to be a combination of customer pride in her products and an unwavering dedication to her founding values. Much of Deere's following are enticed by the fact that her products are in fact like nothing else on the market; she introduced an entire new facet in the make up industry with her liquid-to-matte lipsticks, and she helped the public focus on the importance of cruelty free products. Her entire line was verified to be completely free of animal testing by the certifier Leaping Bunny.
After a security breach that resulted in the loss of customer information a few years ago, the Lime Crime brand was shaken alongside the trust of their consumers. Deere marks this time as the hardest she's endured in her business's lifespan thus far. She emphasizes the idea that she takes the blame for what happened, though there was very little she or the company could have really done to prevent it. Deere describes the great lengths she and her team at Lime Crime went to to rebuild the relationship she had so long been working on with her customers, and has managed to find the slightly brighter side of the situation by deeming it a learning experience of sorts.
Despite the struggles she's faced in her now more than 10 year career in the beauty industry, Doe Deere remains one of the most influential and hardworking women in the country. She expresses her gratitude and immense pride that she is able to now work alongside a people like Kimberley Gordon, creator of highly acclaimed Wildfox Couture and role model of Deere, while bringing her individualism and originality to the world around her.
Chaz by Wen Gets 7-Day Test Run
Wen hair is a full line of hair cleaning and styling products. If you read the reviews, most women swear by the products and believe they are the best thing since sliced bread.
But not all ladies are ready to believe the hype. Buzzle Health and Beauty Editor Emily McClure decided to give the products a 7-day whirl to see if they are really as good as advertised.
Emily chose the sephora fig cleanser for her hair, which she describes as oil and flat. The cleanser calls for quite a bit of product — 14-16 pumps. After the first day, Emily says she saw some results. Her hair was less oily, had more shine and was much more manageable. However, she did find that missing one day of treatment caused her hair to quickly revert back to its old state. After returning to the routine, her hair regained shine and volume. One drawback: the product did make her a bit more oily.
Emily's overall verdict: the products are really good if you stick with a routine. If you're lazy and not willing to use the products as directed, it shouldn't be your go-to product.
Wen hair was created by celebrity stylist Chaz Dean. He has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry including Cher, Madonna and Gloria Estafan. Chaz introduced his products to deliver beautiful hair without all the fuss. His 5-in-1 products replace shampoo, condition, detangler and even leave-in conditioner. The products are all natural and leave your hair and scalp clean and healthy.

Duda Melzer Brings A Global Vision To Brazil's RBS Group
The media industry is one that can be described as truly global in the 21st century as ideas and programming now transcend the globe as new forms of media and streaming options provide viewers with more options than ever before. Brazil's RBS Group has recently looked to the future with the appointment of a new President, Eduardo Sirotsky Melzer, better known by his nickname of Duda. The movement towards a new form of media transmission has seen the respected RBS Group look to find a new way of reaching viewers through the use of new media that has opened up new areas of success for the company.
In appointing Duda Melzer as the new president of the RBS Group the company is opening up new areas of success for the future, which includes the chance to explore non traditional media options that Melzer is something of an expert in. Duda Melzer spent a period of his working life exploring new media options in the U.S. in leadership positions at a range of media outlets, which he feels has given him the chance to expand the options available to RBS as he leads the company into what should be a successful future.

Chickenpox (cont.)
What Are Symptoms and Signs of Chickenpox?
Patient Comment Read 1 Comment
Healthy children generally experience one to two days of fever, sore throat, and malaise approximately two weeks following exposure to VZV. Within 24 hours of these symptoms, a characteristic rash develops initially on the torso and then spreads over the next seven to 10 days outward to the head, arms, and legs. Skin lesions progress through a predictable evolution from a red papule ("bug bite" appearance) to blister (vesicle) to a pustule (pus-filled blister), which then scabs over. The vesicle and pustular fluids are highly concentrated with infectious virus particles. New lesions characteristically come in recurring "waves" over the skin surface. The patient may thus have newly formed papules, middle-aged vesicles and pustules, and crusted lesions all at the same time. At the peak of the disease, a patient may have over 300 skin lesions at one time. Once all lesions are scabbed over and no new lesions are developing, the person is no longer contagious. The lesions rarely cause permanent scarring, unless secondary infection develops (see below). Lesions may commonly be found in the mouth and may also involve the genitalia.
In healthy children, chickenpox is a mild disease. Adults are 25% more likely to have significant complications from the diseases. Common complications affecting both children and adults include the following:
Chickenpox and Pregnancy
The first case of pregnancy-associated complications of VZV was reported in 1947. Further studies have shown that most cases of congenital (in the womb) infection occur in infants whose mothers were infected with VZV between eight and 20 weeks' gestation. Congenital infection occurs only in infants born to mothers who experience VZV clinical infection (chickenpox) during pregnancy. Women who are immune to VZV and are exposed to chickenpox during pregnancy do not carry the same risk profile for their infant. Studies indicate that the risk of fetal anomalies as a result of congenital VZV infection is very small (0.4%-2%). Complications that have been documented include skin pigment abnormalities and scarring (presumably due to intrauterine skin infections), eye abnormalities, brain structural abnormalities resulting in mental retardation, and structural abnormalities of the arms and legs. Maternal shingles during any trimester of pregnancy has not been associated with congenital abnormalities. Non-VZV-immune pregnant women can be reassured that localized shingles (zoster) infection is only contagious from direct contact with open lesions.
Maternal VZV infection during the final two weeks of a pregnancy carries an ominous risk for the infant. Infected infants have up to a 25% mortality (death) rate, and the worse prognosis exists for those infants whose mothers develop chickenpox during the last five days of confinement. Overwhelming generalized sepsis (infection of the bloodstream that spreads throughout the body) and multiple organ infection and failure lead to such a dismal prognosis. Specific anti-VZV gamma globulin can be used to lessen the severity of neonatal disease (see below).
Is Chickenpox Contagious?
Chickenpox is extremely contagious with human-to-human (only) transmission. VZV can be transferred by direct contact with the skin lesions or by respiratory droplets (for example, nasal secretions).
How Long Is the Incubation Period of Chickenpox?
Individuals exposed to VZV are at risk for 10-21 days postexposure.

Definición de thermoluminescence en inglés:
The property of some materials that have accumulated energy over a long period of becoming luminescent when pretreated and subjected to high temperatures, used as a means of dating ancient ceramics and other artifacts.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- Many minerals heated at hundreds of degrees emit luminescence, so that thermoluminescence has been used initially in geology, archeological dating and radiation dosimetry.
- The thermoluminescence does not manifest itself until a temperature of 932°F is reached.
- To determine the time since the object was last fired, a sample of around 30 mg is removed and heated to 500°C, which releases the stored energy in the form of light - this is thermoluminescence.
thermoluminescent adjetivo
- Oraciones de ejemplo
- I changed the wick and coated it with thermoluminescent salts which glow when they get hot.
- A still further object of the present invention is to provide various uses for thermoluminescent material.

But Jason Segel is so committed to his 'stepdaughter' Matilda that he has contacted her later father's family to reassure them he has her best interests at heart.
The actor is said to have reached out to Heath Ledger's family to let them know they are always welcome to spend time with the late star's daughter Matilda.
Family outing: Michelle Williams was pictured holding daughter Matilda's hand on Sunday outside of the Magic Castle in Hollywood
The How I Met Your Mother actor reportedly contacted Kim Ledger, Heath's father, to say he is there for his six-year-old granddaughter and her mother, his girlfriend Michelle Williams.
got on the phone and introduced himself to Kim, and then invited the
Ledgers to use his home whenever they wanted to fly in from Australia to
visit Michelle and Maddie,' a source close to the Ledger family told Radar.
'Kim was blown away by Jason's generosity and the two hit it off right away.
'Now Kim's given his blessing for Jason to marry Michelle and be a stepdad to Matilda,' the source added.
Sunday best: Jason, Michelle and Matilda all dressed up for their visit to the storied attraction
Jason and Michelle were pictured taking Matilda to the Famous Magic Castle today in Hollywood.
Michelle wore a striped tan and white shirt dress paired with two-toned heels.
Little Matilda was dressed in an adorable red cotton skirt paired with a printed blue top and sandals.
Jason donned a blue jacket and tie along with gray cotton trousers for the visit to the storied attraction.
The two actors went public with their relationship only last April at the Five Year Engagement premiere in April.
The bi-coastal couple - who split their time between Michelle's New York base and Jason's LA abode - went public with their relationship.
Popular attraction: The trio were among a large crowd who visited the attraction
Williams and Segel, who were the subject of engagement rumours last month, are frequently photographed spending time with little Matilda.
News of Jason and Michelle possibly considering marriage comes amid reports Segel is set to quit US television show, How I Met Your Mother.
The actor is to bow out of the comedy series after he completes filming on its eighth series as his Hollywood career has taken off in recent years with diverse roles in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Knocked Up, The Muppets and most recently The Five Year Engagement.
Speaking of his movie career, he told Kurier.at recently: 'It's great to do some 'Rated R' stuff again, because I've been playing the nice guy for quite a long time now.'
Michelle amicably ended her three-year relationship with Heath in September 2007, and the following January he died of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.
Fondly remembered: Heath Ledger passed away in January of 2008

Archives, Media, and Identity

Using Archives to Enhance Teaching & Learning
How can media history inform our understanding of our current moment? What is the role of media in the construction of identity, social hierarchies, and our understanding of power? Recognizing that archival and primary source materials provide evidence that can help answer these kinds of questions, Professor Helen Morgan Parmett decided to experiment by integrating an upper-class research and writing assignment with resources at the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies (CPNWS), a division of Western Libraries Heritage Resources.
Last quarter students from Professor Morgan Parmett's Communications Studies 416 class, "Cultural History of Media and Identity," spent several hours at the CPNWS to review a variety of primary source archival materials in their consideration of the intersections between cultural history, media, and identity formation.
This was the first time many of these students had ever worked directly with archival materials, and CPNWS staff sought to provide contrasting examples of locally-produced media by also including materials that spoke to the experiences, interests, and voices of traditionally under-represented individuals and groups. For example, in addition to exploring historic issues of more mainstream publications such as the Bellingham Herald, students also examined the Northwest Passage, an alternative newspaper produced from 1969-1986, as well as a range of newsletters and educational materials produced by women's organizations and LGBTA+ advocacy groups.
Heritage Resources Assistant Archivist for Outreach and Instruction Roz Koester helped facilitate the inquiry process by asking students to consider not just the materials in front of them, but to also think about what was not kept.
"Since we so often rely on written documentation to provide evidence of our shared cultural heritage, it's important to be aware that there are stories and experiences that remain untold," explained Koester. "A lot of records don't get preserved, so, as researchers, you need to not only be thinking about the information that's available in the resources you're using, but also what might be missing. And we should all be thinking about how we can engage those hidden voices in order to preserve a more complete picture of our history."
As a required component of their research and writing assignment, students were expected to contribute to the scholarship of media history and identity found in secondary literature by constructing an original argument based on archival evidence of media influence on the construction Pacific Northwest identities.
Professor Morgan Parmett hopes that through this assignment, her students will develop a greater understanding not only of media history, but also of where we are now and how we are currently using media. She emphasized how we can learn much about today by considering the media histories of the past:
"For one, they disillusion us from the idea that things have always been a certain way by demonstrating the conflicts, debates, and struggles out of which our current moment emerged," explained Professor Morgan Parmett. "These histories illuminate the fact that many of the debates we currently have about media and its societal effects are, in fact, not new. Seeing how these debates were resolved in earlier periods may provide insights for how we might move forward into our media futures in more socially just ways."
Heritage Resources is a division of Western Libraries which includes Special Collections, the University Archives & Records Management, and the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies. Together these units provide for the responsible stewardship of unique and archival materials in support of teaching, learning, and research.

Topic(s): Updates, Events, Resources
Spring Quarter TLA Dialogue Sessions begin April 6th
"How do we move beyond conversation to achieve self-sustaining equity and inclusivity at Western?" is the Teaching-Learning Academy's (TLA) BIG question for 2015-2016. Faculty, staff, community members, and over 70 students worked collectively throughout fall quarter to create a shared question that addresses how we can better enhance the teaching and learning environment at Western.
More than 90 TLA participants spent winter 2016 exploring and gathering data to address this question, and spring quarter will be spent finalizing action proposals that address the BIG question for this academic year.
The spring TLA sessions begin Apr. 6 and 7, and meet every other week for a total of four meetings for the quarter. There are four dialogue group options:
· Wednesdays noon-1:20 pm (Apr. 6, 20, May 4, & 18)
· Wednesdays 2-3:20 pm (Apr. 6, 20, May 4, & 18)
· Thursdays noon-1:20 pm (Apr. 7, 21, May 5, & 19)
· Thursdays 2-3:20 pm (Apr. 7, 21, May 5, & 19)
While the sessions run for approximately 80 minutes, attendees are welcome to stop by based on their availability. All dialogue groups meet in the Learning Commons in Wilson 2 West.
Students can also participate for Communications practicum credit. For more information, contact email@example.com. To sign up for a TLA dialogue session email email@example.com.
The Teaching-Learning Academy (TLA) is the central forum for the scholarship of teaching and learning at Western Washington University and brings together a broad spectrum of perspectives from across campus. Engaged in studying the intersections between teaching and learning, TLA members include faculty, students, administrators, and staff from across the University, as well as community members.

Wings of Prey: WWII Air Combat is a combat flight simulator. With the right amount of focus placed on the actual flying of the craft to the extremely well done aerial combat. The game comes with several difficulty levels that increase the actual realism of the flying itself and the enemy's skill. There are a variety of missions, including dog fights, and bombing with a large selection of planes to keep any aviation man happy.Read more ›
The game is fun. Skill levels range from a pretty hard Arcade level to a really hard Sim or Realistic level. The forum for the game is full of helpful, knowledgeable people. There are many good flyers playing the game. The graphics are really pretty good. There are some problems with joy stick setup and some other small stuff, but they are not insurmountable if you stick to it.
The difficulty I have experienced seems to stem from the fact that the game developers keep "improving" the game and then mess it up so it is full of glitches. Which may or may not be taken care of in the next "improvement".
So beware, buy the game, it's cheaper here than on the game site, but watch out for the developers " improvements". They may really test your patience.
When I purchased this game I probably expected something closer to IL2 with better graphics and other improvements, mostly related to greater capabilities of modern computers. But this game stands much closer to arcade games than to realistic sims like IL2/LockOn. If you find these games way too complex - you might like Wings of Prey. Otherwise you might not really enjoy it. Also the game is full of small glitches and problems, which makes playing annoying.
So what's good:
- graphics is great. Better than in any flight sim I've seen before;
What's bad (note:I'm always flying on a "simulator" difficulty level):
- There's no time compression! I have to fly for 20 minutes just to reach the target. Damn!
- There's something strange with simulation of your plane's fuel system. When you are flying Hurricane over Britain, you are running out of fuel in about 15 minutes. I have never been a Hurricane pilot, but this seem to be too short. But when you are flying IL2, your fuel gauge always shows a full tank.
- Engine control is ugly. Sometimes you can't adjust the mixture. This leads to an excessive fuel consumption in certain cases.
- Again, controlling prop pitch and mixture with throttle axis is so ugly that I had to remove it completely and use the keyboard instead.
- Damage simulation is lousy. If your engine is damaged and smoking, you might still flying for a long time without any troubles.
- AI is... strange. It's behavior is inconsistent. Sometimes your opponents virtually don't even notice you are here, shooting at them. Other time you will be shot down immediately.
- If you want to play on your own custom difficulty level, you have to readjust it every time you are starting mission. Very time consuming.
- You can't enter your name as a pilot. Not a big deal, but still feels bad.

text: Hiring a junior Linux System Administrator can be a challenging task, especially if you are interviewing for someone who is above your own Linux skill set! How do you know for sure that they are going to be any good at what they say they can do? What are the best interview questions to ask a junior Linux System Admin? In our experience, the best way to gauge an employees skill set is to put them in front of a command line interface and have them execute a number of straightforward tasks. Oftentimes, candidates will say that they have strong skills in Linux, but when confronted with an actual problem, they don't have the "tools" to fix it themselves. So, what we look for is a candidate's ability to use tools, rather than their ability to fix a particular problem. Employers are typically looking for candidates with the following skill set.

Suppose I have a binary data file 'foo' that I want to version on branch 'dev' but not on branch 'feature'. If my current working copy is 'feature', can I simply ignore foo without affecting version control of 'foo' for the 'feature' branch? When I merge 'dev' into 'feature', perhaps before a merge from 'feature' into 'dev', what will happen?
Context: We have a dev environment where people work on features in their own branch then merge into the 'dev' branch which ultimately is merged to trunk for builds. We're supposed to merge 'dev' into our own branch before merging our own into 'dev' again once our local changes are stable. I want to preserve my local 'foo' file from merges, and never commit it, despite it being version controlled on 'dev'.

After its stunning 69-67 win over Kansas Friday night, the members of the Northern Iowa Panthers flew home and found fans who couldn't wait to celebrate, greeting them at the airport at 2 a.m.
According to the Des Moines Register:
Northern Iowa fans stood on the tarmac and sang the UNI Fight Song as the players and coaches got off the plane, then everyone broke into a happy chant of "UNI, UNI, UNI."
"Yeah, it's crazy," said big Jordan Eglseder, still smiling seven hours after UNI's victory over the Jayhawks.
The Gazette in Cedar Rapids has video of Ali Farokhmanesh doing an interview in the waiting area of the airport and then watching as Dick Vitale dropped his name on ESPN.

Experts explain how the Paris Agreement can send a strong signal that the most vulnerable countries will be supported, and that investors need to align portfolios for the inevitable zero-carbon future.

A new initiative launched in Paris this week demonstrates the growing recognition that action by financial institutions – both public and private – is necessary to begin shifting trillions of dollars toward low-carbon development.

A new report shows how civil society groups can track the flow of adaptation funds and ensure money is used productively.

Civil society has the power to make adaptation finance more transparent and accountable. The Adaptation Finance Accountability Initiative (AFAI) has developed a proven set of methods that civil society organizations can use to track the flow of adaptation funds and push their governments to...
The Adaptation Fund and Green Climate Fund are unique in that they provide climate finance directly to national institutions in developing nations. Here's how countries can meet the Funds' requirements to help finance mitigation and adaptation activities.
Climate finance is essential for enabling developing countries to both reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and build resilience to the impacts of a warming world. Watch for six signs over the next two weeks to see how COP 21 makes progress in this area.
As of this Monday, 174 countries had submitted their national climate plans to the UN, in preparation for the Paris climate summit that begins next week. These "Intended Nationally Determined Contributions" (INDCs) show countries are stepping up to take collective action to address climate change. Governments have set out a variety of different approaches, including specifying absolute emissions-reduction targets, setting economy-wide emissions intensity goals, outlining efforts to adapt to the impacts of climate change, and detailing specific actions they plan to take in a range of...

Heroin or Cocaine in Your Pocket Could Be Misdemeanor Under California Sen. Mark Leno's Proposed Law
Michelle Irish
So you like heroin and you like to take it with you on trips to the museum, chamber orchestra performances and panel discussions on neurology. But you don't like being pulled over, getting your arms checked for track marks, and having your car searched only to be jailed for possession?
Well has San Francisco state Sen. Mark Leno got a law for you.
The liberal politician wants to do away with felony status for "holding:"
Last week he introduced a proposed law called SB 1506, which would ...
... make the unlawful possession of any of those substances ... cocaine, heroin, and those classified in Schedule III, IV, or V as a narcotic drug ... a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for not more than one year.

Premium Seating: Los Angeles Angels v SEATTLE MARINERS
TicketsMon., Aug. 15, 7:05pm
As it is, possession for personal use of such drugs is a felony worth 16 months to three years behind bars in California. (Of course, given jail overcrowding in places like L.A. County, such time seems unlikely).
Still, Leno, a longtime medical marijuana supporter, wants to further decriminalize drug use and stop stuffing our jails and prisons with people whose greatest crimes have been against themselves and good hygene.
Ethan Nadelmann, director of the Drug Policy Alliance, states:
The real crime is the law that treats drug possession for personal use as a felony. Sen. Leno's bill aspires to a more civilized society in which citizens are spared the stigma of a felony conviction, and in which taxpayers are spared the indignity and waste of $2 billion over the next ten years.

Folks are acting like there's big news out from Amazon/Alexa about opening up Alexa's search engine to third parties. While that's great, it's not clear to me why this is news. I posted about Alexa's plans back in October, right down to prices. Not that I'm dismissing the idea, but what do we know now that we didn't know then?
Latest Stories
Why is Alexa News News?
I'm still reading the documentation, but a major difference is that this service appears to provide much deeper access to the index metadata and will allow third party services to run at the Alexa data center where it's close to the data, i.e. high bandwidth, low latency.
This could be a lot more interesting than simple access to formatted search results, since otherwise you'd have to make a bulk query, ship the results over the network, possibly retrieve the returned pages, and process them somewhere else, not very practical for a vertical search application that wanted to do additional processing on a filtered body of pages.
Whether this is just interesting or actually useful will depend on both the quality of the index and what is actually accessible from their runtime environment. I'm a bit astonished to find instructions for shell access via SSH and program compilation in their Getting Started guide.

This is it! Walk in, take over and start earning money your first day as the owner of your own business! Often referred to as "the cutest little store I've ever seen!"
We've done all the work and you can reap the rewards. Twelve years of cultivating the most loyal customers found anywhere through good ole fashioned excellent customer service and the most sought after personalized products available.
Moreover, this charmingly designed and themed business is located in the epicenter of the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge hospitality and entertainment corridor. The gateway to the nation's most-visited national park (Great Smoky Mountains National Park), between 8-10 million visitors arrive each year to enjoy the area's numerous theaters, amusement parks (such as nationally-known Dollywood), outdoor activities, music...and shopping.
The sale price of $149,900.00 includes ALL current INVENTORY, furniture, fixtures, display units, slat wall accessories, computers, printers, storage shelves, store decorations and small appliances. Proprietary artwork, logos, brochure designs and television commercials will also convey to new owners, as will a robust Amazon storefront and well-established website.
Two weeks' training and free unlimited phone consultation for one year are included. (Additional training time available for a fee, if desired.) You could not set up this store (or any like it) for less money. The location is prime with the best rent and landlord in the city of Gatlinburg.
For your comfort, there is a mini-apartment and ample inventory storage area in the rear of the store. During non-peak seasons, relax and watch TV, read or catch up on personal business in between customers. This is very rare as square footage is at a premium in Gatlinburg. Most retailers must use every available inch for product display. We are unique not only because of our low rent, but our core products do not require display.
Currently, the inventory is approximately $33,000.00 wholesale ($78,000 - $89,000.00 retail with a greater markup on personalized items)
New owners will learn the easy way, the things we learned the hard way. Benefit from 12 years of customer acquisition, lessons learned, valuable product lines, vendor relationships and prime location...things that cost years to acquire.
